There are eight active large wild-land fires in the state that has burned over 176,000 acres and are causing long term effects. These wildland fires have long-term effect. Dan Cather, UVU's Utah Fire and Rescue Academy Wildland Coordinator, explained that this could be a start to a dry-fire cycle. "We have not had a very eventful fire season for the last few years. We've had wet summers and wet springs," Cather said. "Fire seasons go in cycles.

Cather has helped-with wildfires in the area, including the Quail Fire, the Herriman Fire and the Dump Fire. According to Cather, wild-land fires have long-term effects. These effects include flood potentials, an increased chance of drought and a loss of minerals. "The fire burns so hot that it can actually sterilize the ground.

With a student population over 30,000, plus faculty and staff, Dr. Bob Rasmus-sen, Dean of Students and Assistant Vice President of Student Life, said the only reason for the fences is for the safety and protection of the whole campus. The liability is so high that the ' construction company is required to set up the zone. "We know that if we put a sign that warned 'stay out, there is construction going on,' most people would chance it," Rasmussen said. "Human nature is to try to find the shortest path and get to where we are going as quickly as possible." This kind of construction might not be new to those who have been at UVU for a while. The university is constantly working on improving its infrastructure. Due to the construction of the science building two years ago, students faced the same kind of inconvenience."During the winter, they had to go outside and across the parking lot because of the fencing of the science building," Rasmussen said. He said the hallway that connected the hall of flags to the PE was shut down, and that it was a challenge with the new detour, especially when students are used to being inside the buildings. The visitor parking has been moved, and the booth has yet to be moved to the west side of the library. Students, faculty and staff are asked to park there and walk to the LA building. "Luckily, with this construction, people can stay indoors when the winter comes, even though it requires a little bit of walking," Rasmussen said.
